A Week as a Student

You start your week with an 8 AM "Introduction to Animal Science" lecture, covering basic species identification and digestive systems. Later, in the lab, you meticulously use a microscope to identify different feed components in a sample, a foundational skill for animal nutrition. You meet your Farm Management group to brainstorm ideas for your sustainable production presentation. Dinner with friends helps you unwind before diving into reading "Principles of Animal Feeding," preparing for tomorrow's class.
